The AC in the rooms don’t work - the temp on the control shows 20° but when you call the reception, they check the system and say the temp is actually 26°! They say they’ll reset, but nothing really changes. Not sure what electricity they’re trying to conserve, but extremely poor service. Felt like living in an oven, and was suffocated+sweating at night. The saving grace is the great location that’s accessible and a good sea view.

Bad service, the reception man at night, his style is rude, he screams when asking for any room service. There is no air conditioning all the time. The air conditioning cuts off while you sleep. It is controlled by them. The mattresses were not changed. There are dog hairs on the mattresses. Only the location they have is good. I will not repeat the experience again.
